I think we will leave the investment proposal issue there and move on to the 2015 annual growth survey. As members will be aware, next week we will meet the Minister of State with responsibility for Europe, Deputy Dara Murphy, in advance of the General Affairs Council meeting. As a large part of our agenda at next week's meeting will involve a discussion on the annual growth survey, it will be useful to hear the views of members and get a presentation on that matter today. I welcome Mr. Patrick O'Riordan of the European Commission office in Dublin. I have seen him in the audience at previous meetings of the joint committee. This is his first time to speak here as a witness.
